**I am available to take on new projects. Please send over a message through chat to discuss your editing/proofreading needs**
With over 6 years and 370+ projects completed, I specialize in transforming manuscripts into polished, professional, and powerful books. My breadth of expertise spans both fiction and nonfiction, giving me a unique ability to adapt my skills to your specific needs; whether that's ensuring the logical flow of a business book or strengthening the arc of a novel.
My core philosophy is that great editing amplifies your voice; it doesn't replace it. I partner with authors to refine their work with meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of narrative craft.
My clients consistently highlight three key strengths that define my work:
1. Deep, Insightful Analysis: I go beyond the surface to strengthen the very foundation of your manuscript.
"She has an ability to interpret meaning and read between the lines. She understood and strengthened the project's weaknesses."
"Esther turned a good book into a great book."
2. Meticulous Polish & Clarity: I ensure your writing is crisp, clear, and consistent, allowing your ideas or story to shine without distraction.
"Her edits were clean, insightful, and always improved clarity and flow without losing the heart of the text."
"A detailed and meticulous editor... we can't praise her work enough!"
3. A Reliable, Collaborative Partnership: Your vision and timeline are my top priorities. I am known for clear communication, professionalism, and delivering outstanding work on schedule.
"One of the best resources I have ever had. She respected the timelines and delivered outstanding work."
"A dream to work with, professional, efficient, and incredibly respectful of my voice as a writer."
Whether you are a debut author or an established expert, my goal is to provide an editing experience that is as exceptional as the final manuscript. Let's connect to discuss how my 6 years of experience across 370+ projects can bring clarity, impact, and professionalism to your book.

You finished the book. Don't let a generic edit be what stops it from selling.
I'm a developmental, line, and copy editor and proofreader for self-published authors and small publishing houses. I'm currently the trusted editor for a publishing services company handling 1000+ projects a year, where I've worked on everything from 1K-word self-help books to a 205K-word technical manuscript. One client put it simply: "She didn't just edit my manuscript. She elevated it."
Want proof before you commit? Send me a sample chapter and I'll return a short edit, free, no obligation, so you can see exactly how I'd handle your manuscript.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
I provide developmental editing, line editing, copy editing, and proofreading for nonfiction, fiction, self-help, memoir, and romance manuscripts, using publishing-house workflows: editorial letters, style sheets, Track Changes, and Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) standards. For self-published authors, I also prepare manuscripts for Amazon KDP, so your file is ready for Kindle and paperback publication once editing is complete.
What sets the process apart:
• Every project includes a tracked-changes copy and a clean final copy, so you always see exactly what changed
• I flag structural and consistency issues other editors miss: pacing, repetition, plot or argument gaps
• I'm comfortable handling technically dense manuscripts, including content with embedded data, formulas, or specialized terminology that requires careful editorial judgment to edit around without disrupting accuracy
• I'm comfortable refining AI-assisted drafts so they read naturally and pass as fully human-written
Genres I work in most: self-help, business/leadership, memoir, faith-based, and AI-assisted nonfiction. (For romance specifically, I work primarily on line and developmental edits rather than full publishing-house workflows.)
